Ovulation tests help

I’ve taken the Clearblue ovulation tests for 5 days now and keeps coming up as high (flashing smiley) but when I take the test strips yesterday and today shows super faint barely there lines. Do we think I haven’t ovulated yet or not high enough to show peak result

Same deal here. Clearblue flashes but cheapie aren't even near positive....

Same deal here. Clearblue flashes but cheapie aren't even near positive. Curious to hear the answer to this too. 😊

Thanks! Yes, that’s how mine looks! I will say, later in the day I noticed EWCM (egg white cervical mucus) so I don’t think I’ve ovulated yet ...but am close. Will keep testing to see if line gets darker. Seems like Clearblue is correct so far at least.

I’m on day 12/13 of flashing smileys. So basically the clear blue advanced opks test for two hormones estrogen and LH when your estrogen starts to rise that’s when you get a peek reading your estrogen rises higher enough to trigger an LH Spike and that’s when you ovulate so what you are watching is your estrogen getting higher and higher and higher keep testing every day and you will eventually get your peak hopefully

I had light OPK (ovulation predictor kit) strips until yesterday hey started to darken and I took the clearblue advanced digital ovulation test for 8 days first day was low then 6 days of flashing smiles and this morning it was a solid today was actually gonna the the last day I tested with it cause I was sick of the flashing smile lol. Hang in there I know it’s tough waiting for the solid smile

I have short cycles about 23 days shortest cycle was last cycle and it was 21 days. I got the solid smile today and that is cycle day 16 .

So I’m on day SEVEN and it’s been flashing the whole time, but I took a cheapie today and it went way darker than previous ones! Like just a tiny smidge lighter than the control line.. so am hoping the CB is going to show peak tonight or tomorrow??? So hang in there you may have like a week to go! Lol. I’ll let you know. This was the first time I saw the cheap one go dark.
